Chapter 55 Rice
While arguing loudly with Niya, Les looked around unobtrusively.

What surprised him was that the people around him seemed to be looking at him and his group in a vague way.

With a click, Les felt a chill in his heart.

broken.

"The City of Fortune is really not easy."

Les said to Nya quickly and silently with lip language.

"Then what do we do?"

The girl with fiery red hair flustered, and also responded with lip language.

"Coward," Les yelled suddenly with a loud voice, "I'm going out to have a good time tonight, sister, just tell me if you will come or not."

"Who's a coward? I'm just worried that you don't have enough money to pay for my share, and then someone will detain you and chop your fingers off!"

Niya understood, and immediately shouted loudly.

"Listen to Uncle Marcus, go directly to him." Les looked calm, lowered his voice, and moved his lips slightly, "I actually felt malicious..."

Niya's expression changed drastically.

Rice's profession is Blazer.This is a special job that can only be held by the nobles of the mountain people. The high-level Blazblue Ranger claims to be able to see the enemy's malicious intentions across three mountains and track them back.

But Rice's professional level is not high, and his perception is not that sharp.Unless he held a dagger behind Rice, it was almost impossible for Rice to perceive the maliciousness of others.

For a Blazer of his level, the main selling points are his excellent eyesight and ultra-long-range strikes—the perception of danger is more of an added bonus.

Of course, once Blazlane's origin is awakened, this supernatural ability to see maliciousness can almost isolate Blazlane from any man-made dangers and conspiracies.

But on the other hand, if Rice, who has not yet developed malicious perception, can detect it, then it is conceivable how strong the maliciousness is.

"Are you from Farajo?"

A crisp voice came from behind, and the two of them turned around in astonishment.

I saw a beautiful figure standing behind me.

Les swore he had never seen such a good-looking person.

That is a completely different aesthetic feeling from the mountain girl who emphasizes natural health.The long black waist-length hair didn't stand up, just fluttering naturally in the cold wind.The delicate doll-like little face was flushed with cold, and the long eyelashes flickered, as timid as a small animal, it easily aroused the male's inner desire for protection.

Especially the skin that seemed to be fair to almost transparent due to years of illness, gave Les the illusion that it would melt with a little heat.

I am used to seeing mountain girls who can tear apart cheetahs and single out porcupines. This exotic beauty captured Les's heart almost instantly.After all, he is a mountain dweller from Farara, and the people of Rodahan never know how to hide their lust, and are proud of it.

"We come from Fararo—beautiful lady, may I ask your name?"

"You can call me Herlan."

The sickly black-haired young lady tilted her head in distress, and did not say her last name.

She said, "I'm a local, if you have any troubles, just ask me."

"Is such that--"

Les spoke without hesitation.

Niya hastily tugged at his sleeve.

The fiery boy shook his head with a smile on his face, indicating that Niya didn't need to worry.

He could feel that since this beautiful girl appeared in front of their eyes, those malicious eyes cast from all directions have shifted away one after another.

This kind of collective exclusion is not unheard of in Fararo.However, this kind of regional xenophobia usually ends with the guarantee of a veteran local.In Rice's view, the situation in front of him is not much different.

"Don't worry, she's a nice person."

Les mouthed quickly to Niya, and the expression of the red-haired girl soon relaxed.

She chose to trust Rice, and trust Rice's premonition.

"First time in City of Fortune?"

Herlan looked at them with a smile, and her voice was full of tenderness and an unconcealable smile: "Come on, I'll take you to eat ice. I remember that there was a tavern that sold fruit ice."

"Fruit ice? What's that?"

As expected, Niya's attention was quickly distracted.

"At that time, the nobles of Titan liked to enjoy the food. Generally speaking, eating ice in summer tastes the best," Heerlan said frankly, "But for professionals like us, eating ice in winter is not a big deal. Is it serious?"

"That's natural!"

Les nodded proudly: "The descendants of Roda Khan have conquered the winter long ago! I once dived into the crystal lake of Falara and endured the severe cold for three nights in winter, and then caught a water goblin!"

"...Oh? Really? Then you are really amazing!"

Hellan seemed taken aback, her mouth was slightly opened, and the pink and tender tongue could almost be seen through the slender fingers covering her mouth.

Les swallowed involuntarily.

The men of the mountain people never doubt their own charm.If this was Fararo, any mountain girl would have been shocked by his strong body.

But in the same way, if this is Fararo, then he will not look down on the group of women who can beat him better.

Anxiety, rapid heartbeat——

For the first time, the young mountain people felt the complex taste of tension and waiting.

After getting off the carriage, Roland immediately felt salivating and malicious eyes from all directions, and the number was still increasing.Even the eyes that were originally looking at the two fat sheep siblings were attracted by Roland.

Those are the spies of various forces in the city of wealth.

Roland understood.

In this chaotic city, the city gate with the most traffic is the easiest place to get information.Once in the city, these spies must act in accordance with the wishes of the current street ruler in any street.This will bring countless troubles to their information collection work.

Conversely, the gates of the city, not counting any streets, are the easiest places to inquire about information.

Facing the gaze that almost tore him apart and swallowed him, Roland was not timid at all, he just walked towards the two siblings with an almost perfect smile on his face, and then followed the very standard procedure in the city of wealth to the two siblings. The two fat sheep caught up with each other.

...Could it be colleagues?

Roland's actions quickly made the people around him feel suspicious, but then they threw away this doubt.

——What if you are a colleague?

Let alone peers, here, even colleagues can't play any role.It is good to sell a colleague to the devil, but it is quite conscientious not to chop up one's colleague to feed pigs and then forcibly switch to the breeding industry.

Crystal Lake... eh?
Roland's innocent and pure light flickered in Roland's eyes, but the deepest darkness still dwelled in the depths of the pupils as deep as the abyss.

Moreover, Roland couldn't help laughing when he thought of those stupid guys who really regarded these two little guys as fat sheep.

If he remembered correctly, Crystal Lake was a top-secret place that only the top nobles of Falaro could enter.

And, the water sprite—

If Roland remembers correctly, there is only one mountain man in this world who captured the water goblin.That is the azure blue male of later generations.

Since he can live to be a duke, it means that the experience in the city of wealth has definitely not ruined him.In other words, he probably has some cards that can counter the ubiquitous crisis in the city of wealth.

but……

Roland sneered.

Just because those idiots can't destroy you doesn't mean I can't.

Thinking of this, Roland hid the letter of introduction deeper in his sleeve.

...Well, I've been very busy recently, so hurry up and come to some recommendations and collections to appease Shixian's young heart (tea)
Let's promise, there will be a double update during the National Day holiday to celebrate!
